The illusions of Psychiatry -- great article

This is a seriously great article exposing all the inner workings of psychiatry's billing bible, the Diagnostic and Statistical Manual of Mental Disorders (DSM), including the complete lack of medical legitimacy for psychiatric diagnoses, the birth of the psychiatric-pharmaceutical alliance to push DSM disorders off on an unsuspecting public, and the funding behind psychiatrists and their front groups pushing the brain based "disease" model which they all know is bogus.

"Unlike the conditions treated in most other branches of medicine, there are no objective signs or tests for mental illness—no lab data or MRI findings—and the boundaries between normal and abnormal are often unclear. That makes it possible to expand diagnostic boundaries or even create new diagnoses, in ways that would be impossible, say, in a field like cardiology. And drug companies have every interest in inducing psychiatrists to do just that."

Where to get helpCCHR.ORG is about the best place I know of to get help or referrals on psychiatric abuse.
Dr. John Breeding also runs an interesting site, Wild Colts, for kids diagnosed with ADHD (one of the greatest frauds I've seen).
